you know, when it comes to us guys and the bags we tote, how small can you go before that carry all becomes a ladies' clutch? tile sorenson who, like me, is

seven feet tall. great to see you. address that question before we look at some of the stuff that i might carry around. generally, what do you say about that? how small is too small? >> at guilt man we talk about the difference between a man bag and a bag fit for a man. rule number one is your bag shouldn't look like it was designed to carry makeup. >> okay. >> maybe unless you're a tv superstar who has to wear makeup as part of his job. there are certain context rules. >> i don't like how this is going for me. i don't know who invited you. these are among the bags i would carry. >> among? there are others? were you raised by samsonite. >> that is troubling. >> i have a backpack and i will carry -- >> no, no, no, no, no. >> what's in this? >> i might carry keys around in here. >> because you ran out of pockets? >> and i'll carry -- i get migraines. i carry that in there.

i have a device in here. >> coin purse. >> what is this for then? >> keeps my credit cards in this thing here. >> that's a ladies' purse. >> no, no, no. >> i can go here. i can't go there. >> i might throw this in here. >> i like that you're out fitted. tumi stuff is great. it's all about context. if you're rolling into a business meeting you might be wanting to think about a briefcase as opposed to a little clutch. >> what if you're just out for the day? you're rolling around with the kids, stuff like that? >> this is where we go to what al does. >> how do you do it? >> this is what i do. look, i've got -- today, i'm going to the gym. i've got my gym stuff in there. i've got other stuff, a camera. >> al, if you're just out for the day, running a few errands, taking the kids around. >> keep snacks in here for the kids. i've got snacks. you got everything you need. >> i'm with you on that. >> david claims not to carry the man purse at all times but i

think we have some photographs, undercover shots, david out jogging with the man purse. >> uh-huh. >> on "meet the press." >> nice. >> meet the purse actually. >> david, do you feel that when you sit down with a world leader, you walk into the room, president obama is sitting there. does it undercut your authority at all when you have the man purse? >> no, no, i don't. it's a male accessory clutch. i don't think it's a -- >> what do you carry, willie? >> i have a wallet. i have this, right here. wrapped around a subway card, driver's license. you lose things from time to time but -- >> what are some of the other alternatives to what david carries? >> there is a minimum size that's acceptable. it's more like an ipad kind of a thing. this from tumi, i really like. >> wait a minute, really? somehow this is not a problem? >> again, that wouldn't

necessarily roll into a business mean. >> wouldn't roll into a business meeting. >> something a bit bigger. this is what i love from herschel. they're under 50 bucks. >> i've got one of those. >> that's just the traditi briefcase. >> that's an attache. >> one of my problems with this, i feel like wookt be in a safe place to have this conversation as men and realize that maybe we're not carrying around bags that are as large as they used to be and that should be okay. >> what are you talking about? >> you can carry smaller bags. >> don't carry this. >> guys like lebron carries -- >> you're right, lebron james' whose masculinity is unquestioned -- >> when you -- maybe we can talk. >> you guys laugh but i have photos of you two. willie, in terms of your choice as well. we'll get to that on thursday, that picture that we have of you. >> you have smaller backpacks.

i'm liking these. the briefcase is back. my philosophy is go briefcase, casual from j. crew, this one from zara, or backpack. topo is a cool brand out of boulder, colorado. of course, the tote bag, you can't go wrong. every guy needs one of these. extra butch version in camo. >> it would go with your baby bjorn. >> exactly. bottom line, in terms of smaller accessory bags that you would carry -- >> don't use them. don't use them. >> i think that you're a big guy. you also want to think about proportion. >> yes. because this looks like a purse with you. you're a giant. >> i would say this piece from tumi here is a good -- you can put your ipad mini in here, a book. >> you're a big guy. i want to know the martha stewart position. she's standing over there. real quirks come over here. how small is too small for the man purse? what would you say?

>> i think those are a little small. >> thank you. >> first of all -- >> is this a problem, martha? >> no. that looks like a shaving kit, which is fine. >> but you don't carry that around. >> no, no, you put it inside the other bag. >> always hide it, she says. >> i like the masculine tote bag. it's great. you can fit a lot of stuff in there. nobody knows whose it is. backpack hurts your shoulders. it hurts your suit. i don't like it when men's suits are all wrinkled. >> some of us are young at heart. >> yes. >> but you have a very good assortment here. >> well, thank you very much. it's an important topic. i'm glad we got to cover it. >> important for david. >> thank you very much for being supportive, only not at all. martha will be back with oscar party tips. don't you want to bring a bag to an oscar party, depending how long you're staying. celebrity homes that have just hit the market. first this is "today" on nbc.

roof terrace has poured concrete fireplace and wide open views and the master bath is about as simple as you could get. little sauna room there. this is a sweetheart of a house but a little overpriced. >> we're still in l.a. pacific palasaids, chris bosh. >> mr. basketball in high school, even back then. >> this is for rent. >> you're right about that. the price, what do you think, david? $45,000 a month. but for that, you get 11,000 square foot of mock mediterranean style, popular out there in the pacific palisades, romantic style pool. good shot of the living room. lots of open space. big center fireplace. this house is probably going to sell well. it's got a screening room, billiard room, every rich guy's dream in the world. six bedrooms and five baths. >> just a rental here. >> just a rental. what, you want to buy it?

i'll sell it to you, no problem. from athlete to politician, marco rubio, senator from florida, is selling his miami home. what does that look like? >> this one is not that spectacular, but it's almost reassuring, just what you would expect from a humble public servant. he has picked a good time to sell, fortunately, in miami. there's a few shots. the pictures are not that good. mediterranean touches throughout. the kitchen has dark wood cabinets. the dining room has large win w windows but kind of like a house you would expect to see in any suburb. it's 675. thank god that market has recover recovered or he would only be getting about 450 two years ago. >> do you see a lot of this in the higher end homes, the market having recovered? >> 80% of the markets and the more celebrity that is live there, the faster the turnaround. the rich get richer. >> interesting. barbara corcoran, thank you so much. >> my pleasure. coming up next, martha stewart's secrets for throwing a stylish oscar party. first this is "today" on nbc.
